Edwin Lyon Obituary
Edwin "Scott" Lyon, a beloved husband and cherished friend, passed away on November 8, 2025, at the age of 65, at Walker Baptist Medical Center in Jasper, Alabama.

An avid sports fan, Scott loved the Cincinnati Reds and University of Kentucky basketball. His love for sports was matched only by his joy for working outdoors, particularly enjoyed while riding around working with his tractor.
